just checking: any chance of changes like this making it into the RSRD dataset? Right now, I have to .MOD all the classes, would be nice to have it in the standard set.
I'd be willing to do the coding.
Not sure if the agreement with WotC would allow it though.

Hi,

I have plans to do something similar for the RSRD set, but unfortunately I have a lot on my plate.
With the APG taking up most of my time, I don't have the time to really give a good look over at
what abilities need to be removable. I know the Unearthed Arcana has some of that going on for it.
The one set that seems to take forever to get finished.

If you've got a copy of the base classes with something like that done, then I'll enter it in after
reviewing it. But to make the 5.16.4 release, that would have to happen by the next 24 hours.

Otherwise, we're looking at 5.17.4 as the earliest implementation that would have that for the RSRD.
